Mr. Nobody



Good morning, dear Mr. Nobody
You haven't changed one bit
How do you do Mr. Nobody?
Who were you meant to be?

Come sit with me, Mr. Nobody
Your face, familiar and old
Face of a man in the subway
Charmless and distant and cold

Do you have a name Mr. Nobody?
Do you have a purpose at all?
When were you born Mr. Nobody?
When did you learn to crawl?

Have you been loved Mr. Nobody?
Have you been touched without shame?
Oh, I'll be your friend Mr Nobody
But, please, remind me your name

From where do you come Mr. Nobody?
You don't have a past I suppose
And where do you go Mr. Nobody
When I blink and my eyelids close?

Are you the world Mr. Nobody?
How many of you are out there?
Can you recall Mr. Nobody
How was it when you still cared?

Come sit with me, Mr. Nobody
You will be gone before long
What would you be Mr. Nobody
If you could somehow belong?

How will you leave Mr. Nobody?
Do you have use for goodbyes?
How do you fade Mr. Nobody?
How does a nobody die?
